Ottawa Mayor Sutcliffe just gave budget direction to only hike property taxes 2.9% even though he says there's a budget crisis, how can he do this? Sutcliffe quietly hiked development charges 11% in a year. New homes built downtown fund expensive road widenings in Barrhaven so

Disappointed, but not surprised that so many councillors are willing to keep transit service cuts on the table. Our leaders are content to let Ottawa deteriorate, all in the name of "holding the line on taxes" 🤡

Israel’s pager attack in Lebanon detonated thousands of handheld devices across of a slew of public spaces, seriously injuring and killing innocent civilians. This attack clearly and unequivocally violates international humanitarian law and undermines US efforts to prevent a

People seem to think Vancouver has been doing a better job on this (being described as the 4th densest city in North America, etc.) but 50% of the residential land in the City of Vancouver has less people living on it than it did in the 1950’s. ⬇️ #vanpoli #bcpoli #housing

🚨Big changes ahead! Vancouver is making it easier & faster for non-profits to build social and cooperative housing. The new initiative will allow 6-18 storey projects in all neighborhoods without rezoning, speeding up affordable housing development. Thanks Uytae Lee for the

“why do so many ‘health workers’ have Hezbollah Pagers?” because Hezbollah Pager isn’t a real thing. because that’s what happens supply chains are contaminated. just because the propaganda needs you to be very stupid to believe it doesn’t mean you’re obliged to become that stupid

1. Declaring a housing & homelessness emergency in City of Ottawa 2020 has had zero impact on policy. Words aren’t meaningful. Action is. 2. Talk to Doug Ford because doubling rents & tent cities? Provincial government.

I’m glad to hear that. It is accountable. Jokes about bombs blowing up weren’t helping Jews feel safer (works the other way too: justifications & minimising harm about Jews being killed harms Palestinians). Towards a better future.

Watcliffe Club 2.0. We desperately need a better mayor & suburban councillors to recognise the fact that Ottawa is a city. Some political leadership experience & ability to understand evidence would be great as well. Can we start a countdown until the next municipal election?

research question: has any Western mainstream party parliamentarian offered condolences to Pales- tinians for the death of their people? Has any one expressed sympathy for what it must be like to loose some of your people by the thousands over one year. I would appreciate links

In a world with conflicting understandings of anti-semitism, it’s almost a relief to be told that if a lying criminal racist rapist doesn’t win the US election, it’s the Jews’ fault. I think we can all agree Protocols of the Elders of Zion= anti-Semitism. theglobeandmail.com/world/us-polit…
